The scholar who was in the mouth of the slow beast also felt that the pressure was lightened, his vision went dark, and he passed out. The nine people present suffered one death and several injuries, and finally eradicated the slow beast with great efforts.
Everyone slumped on the spot, feeling the soreness and fatigue in their bodies, but the same thought came to their minds, who pulled out the teeth from the beast's mouth and completed the final blow.
At this time, a dark shadow holding a scholar fell to the ground, and everyone was startled. This was a woman in black, with a slender figure and a cold face. This person does not belong to any of the nine-man team, and no one has seen this beautiful face, but everyone recognized this woman's identity immediately.
The woman who controls the fairy boat! Yes, her body shape and clothing are the same as those of women who operate boats.
"Why are you here?" The sloppy Taoist was the first to ask in a trembling voice, because there were only nine people who touched the teleportation array, but now the tenth person stood in front of them!
"I wandered around in that forest and couldn't get out. Then I saw you and the stone pillar emitting strange lights, so I rushed in. I didn't expect that the stone pillar was a teleportation array, and I ended up in this place inexplicably! "
Everyone was dumbfounded as they listened to the woman narrating how she came to the Ancient Land of Creation. However, recalling carefully, everyone had their eyes closed at the moment when the teleportation array was touched. It is indeed possible for someone to enter the stone array. And no one noticed.
"Aren't you mute?" Wang Juan remembered something and asked presumptuously.
"Who said I'm mute?" The woman gave Wang Yan a cold look.
"Then why didn't you say anything on the fairy boat?"
"I don't like talking in front of disciples." The woman did not name her, but her eyes stayed on Wang Juan for the longest time.
Wang Yan looked aggrieved. I secretly glanced at Murong Tina. Fortunately, she didn't look like she was having a seizure. She was just sitting there alone, her face a little tired, or maybe it was unclear. Could it be that the beauty had spent too much energy just now?
Wang Yan was about to think, but he found that before he had even thought about it, the blood in his brain accelerated, and a sense of fatigue came from deep in his brain.
Ah, suddenly the beautiful woman screamed in a shrill voice, and Wang Yan quickly turned his attention to the scholar in the woman's arms. I saw large areas of blood oozing out from his body. The scholar's robe was originally as white as snow when dyed white.
"He seems to be dying." The woman said coldly.
Everyone noticed the scholar's strange behavior and figured out the reason behind it. They quickly stepped forward and took out their own elixirs to help the scholar heal his injuries and stop the bleeding. But before stepping onto the plain of scorn. The scholar is already dying. Relying on the magic of the Plain of Contempt, the fighting strength has just been restored, but in the battle just now. Apart from the dead man, the scholar who was most careless about life and death and who was most seriously injured was the scholar. If the scholar before was only damaged all over his internal organs and all his veins, now his whole body was damaged, not even a single bone or skin was intact. , Wang Yan really doubted that if it were him who had suffered such serious injuries, he would probably have died a long time ago.
" Haoran's righteousness, it should be this Haoran's righteousness that is not afraid of the enemy and unyielding, which allows him to continue to maintain the will to survive.
After some frantic treatment, or rather treating a dead horse as a living doctor, the scholar's breathing finally calmed down, although it was still very weak, and the blood on his body no longer leaked out, but Wang Yan suspected that this was not because the bleeding had been stopped. , and after shedding so much blood, there was simply no more blood to shed.
After setting up a fairly comfortable place for the scholar, everyone was speechless again, but it seemed that everyone had no energy and energy to continue killing the next monster, and they were all resting on the grassland. Come down.
The beautiful woman took the initiative to stay with the scholar, while the rest of the people, including the newly joined women, meditated alone to restore their spiritual energy.
Although there was only one battle today, Wang Juan used the Vinewood Technique more times than yesterday. He felt that his Dantian was empty, and he was unable to use the Vinewood Technique again, so Wang Juan did not fall asleep immediately, but wanted to Follow the example of others and restore your vital energy.
When Wang Juan circulated his true energy for several days and opened his eyes again, he suddenly found that everyone had gathered in one place and were whispering something, with strange expressions on their faces.
Wang Juan was curious and moved closer. After getting closer, he heard the middle-aged man say: "So, everyone feels the same way, but why? The spiritual energy here is obviously richer than the human world, why do we Is the speed of recovering true energy much slower?"
Murong Tina glanced at Wang Juan, the confused monk, and said: "No?, I still had about 30% of my true energy left yesterday. If I kept going at the past speed, I would be able to recover as before just by meditating for three hours. However, from the night of yesterday to the early morning of this morning, almost five hours have passed, but I have only recovered. At 80%. This matter is indeed somewhat puzzling. "
"Amitabha, I originally thought that it was just because my Zen power was slowly recovering, and that I had thoughts of killing, that was why I had such an impact. I didn't expect that you are also in the same confusion. If something is abnormal, it is a monster. So this is what happened. There is something weird about the ancient land of creation." The beautiful woman curled her lips and said: "This ancient land of creation is full of weirdness, but the little girl is not surprised."
Everyone stopped talking when they heard this. Indeed, compared to what they had experienced in the past few days, the recovery speed of Qi had slowed down a bit. It was indeed not a big deal. At that moment, everyone no longer hesitated and set out to find the other two. The journey of a monster.
There are five days left, and there are only two monsters left. There should be plenty of time, Wang Yan thought with relief. Suddenly, I felt an idea flashing through my mind, but I thought it was a bit too absurd, so I shook my head and threw the whims away.
Everyone was walking on the slow desert, always worried about the appearance of monsters or dangers. Yesterday, the slow beast was solved. The reason for the defeat of the slow beast was of course due to the discovery of the weakness of the slow beast with Wang Yan. , the scholar's desperate efforts at the last moment, and the woman who is like a fairy from heaven.
But in the final analysis. The Slow Beast was still defeated by himself, or it could be said that it was defeated by the word "slow". If it didn't believe that it was indestructible, and showed off to let everyone attack its various parts, Wang Yan would not have been able to use the elimination method so quickly to find it. The weakness of the slow beast is revealed. Otherwise, if everyone is allowed to try it everywhere, I am afraid that not only the reckless man will die.
Wang Yan walked slowly and slowly on the desert, with all kinds of thoughts running through his mind, and finally curiously cast his eyes on the mysterious woman who was able to kill the slow beast yesterday. The woman's last-minute snatch from the beast's mouth was quite effective. But where was this woman a few days ago? She said that she walked in the desert for two days and did not encounter any monsters. Is this true? Wang Juan has always been a little concerned about the feeling of being spied on in the forest of anger. Could the person being spied on be a woman?
Wang Yan shook his head. I just feel like my head is getting hot again. well. I really miss my thinking ability when I was at the Source of Scorn yesterday.
"Wait a minute!" The sloppy Taoist who was walking at the front suddenly stopped, with a bit of weirdness in his tone.
Everyone thought they had encountered something strange again, and they all paid attention. When I came to the Taoist, I looked straight ahead, but found nothing except yellow sand and gravel.
Master Heshan announced the Buddha's name and said: "Amitabha, Taoist Master, with his fiery eyes and golden eyes, has he discovered something suspicious?"
The sloppy Taoist glanced at the people with doubtful faces, shook his head and said: "The dirty Taoist did find something strange and suspicious, but it seems to have nothing to do with this monster."
Everyone was startled. In the ancient land of creation, the only enemy was the monster beast. What else could be suspicious about it? Moreover, the Taoist called it "weird".
The sloppy Taoist frowned and pondered for a moment, seeming to organize the chaotic thoughts in his mind. After a long while, he carefully considered his words and said: "I don't know where to start. Let's put it this way, don't you think we are almost done today?" After driving for half a day, I still haven¡¯t encountered any monsters. Is it different from the past?¡±
The middle-aged man thought for a while and said, "This desert extends in all directions and seems to have no end. On the first day, we found two monster caves in one day. Yesterday there was only one. Today, only half a day has passed. Even though Nothing was found, and there was nothing strange about it. If it goes as smoothly as it did in the past few days, then the seven-day limit hidden in the murals on the ancient land of creation would be too simple."
The sloppy Taoist shook his head quickly and explained: "The poor Taoist also knows that to find monsters in this vast desert, you have to rely on a bit of luck, but now the weird place is not here. Or maybe it's just this one thing. It can¡¯t be called weird, but if we think about the slowdown in our recovery speed yesterday, it¡¯s not only weird, but even incredible.¡±
Everyone had been walking in the desert for half a day. Although they couldn't be said to be dizzy from the torment, they still had an evil fire in their hearts. Now that they heard this sloppy Taoist talking and talking incomprehensibly, they gradually became restless. After getting up, the beautiful woman stopped feeding the scholar water, walked to the crowd and said: "Old Taoist priest, don't you think this ancient land of creation is not weird enough, and you want to talk about some nonsense? You have to pretend to be a ghost and go to the world to deceive those foolish men and women. Don't do this in front of us."
Anger appeared on the sloppy Taoist's face, and he was about to retort, but the woman who had been silent stopped between the two of them, held down the excited woman and said: "AndPut away your impatience, I think I probably understand what the Taoist Master wants to say. "
The beautiful woman was a little dissatisfied, but she couldn't stand this mysterious woman, so she suppressed her temper and said, "Then tell me, what mysterious and weird things happened to us."
The woman ignored the angry woman and said in her usual slow tone: "In the past few days, I have been walking alone in the desert because I have never found the monster's lair, so I didn't just go in one direction like you, but turned back and forth several times. This also made me discover something strange. On the first day, I kept going southeast, but I didn't notice it at all. Starting in the evening, I turned back along the original path. Although the route was generally the same, I returned to the original point after a whole day and night. In other words, my walking speed seemed to be getting slower and slower. At first, I thought I had escaped into some illusion again. I didn't realize it, so I encountered this. But after Taoist Priest said this, I thought about why we find the monsters slower and slower, and why we recover Qi faster and faster. Slow, and why my walking speed is also slowing down. There is only one answer that can explain these three questions!"
Before the woman could say it, everyone already had an answer in their minds, and the one who was most surprised was Wang Juan, because this was what he thought was a whimsical idea before. Could it be that this was not his own whims, but a real existence.
As expected, the woman lightly opened her red lips and said, "The answer is not that everything has slowed down, but that time has sped up."
"How is this possible? Time has been passing through forever. How can it become faster or slower? Your answer is a bit too absurd and the most absurd thing in the world."
The woman glanced at the beautiful woman and said calmly: "Don't forget, we are not in the human world. We are in the ancient land of creation!"
The sloppy Taoist also nodded repeatedly: "Yes. That's what I mean. Don't you really feel it? It seems that we didn't walk very long when we set off today. It was noon all of a sudden. At our current speed, we walked 400 miles in half a day. By the way, if we return now and measure the distance we have traveled, we will definitely find that it is less than three hundred miles." In fact, everyone had vaguely thought this way for a long time, but they all thought it was their own illusion, but Now, after the sloppy Taoist brought it forward and provided irrefutable evidence with the woman, everyone knew that what they thought was impossible was the truth.
Time is changing faster and faster, which is unheard of throughout the ages. Although sometimes you may feel the passage of time differently due to your own reasons. When you are in a happy mood, it passes faster, and when you are sad, it passes slower. But there has never been a strange thing happening with time itself.
Everyone froze on the spot, feeling a little hard to accept this incredible fact!
The beautiful woman was the first to kick the gravel and said angrily: "How can we kill all the monsters within seven days? If time becomes faster and faster, even if we are only one step away from success, time will suddenly change. Seven days have passed in the blink of an eye, so we are being played with by applause and have no control over our own destiny. Then what is the point of us struggling to survive and surviving for many days? "
Several people, including Murong Tina, looked a little gloomy when they heard what the beautiful woman said. If they only needed to kill the monster before, it would be possible for everyone to work together to complete the task, but in the face of this unpredictable time, There is a sense of powerlessness in everyone. It is up to people to make things happen, and it is up to God to make things happen. But if the opponent is God, how can it be possible to make things happen!
"That" an unconfident voice sounded, and it was none other than Wang Yan, "Since we feel that time is getting faster, does anyone know when time got faster, or how much faster it got? If one could know the time Time becomes faster, well, this is a bit of a mouthful, or it is the point where time becomes faster, then maybe we can find out the reason why time becomes faster. Think about what we did and what we encountered at that time, What he or she even said may very well be the root cause of time becoming faster. As for the second question, how much time has become faster? If we can estimate the approximate magnitude of the change, we can compare it with the subsequent time. By comparison, is time getting faster and faster? Or is it a cycle of speeding up and slowing down. In this way, we will not be too passive."
Everyone's eyes lit up, and the middle-aged man nodded and said: "Look for the root cause, find out the reason why time speeds up, know yourself and the enemy, and find out the rules of time change. This little brother's suggestion is very important." The middle-aged man said Here, De De suddenly patted Wang Juan on the shoulder vigorously and said, "I didn't expect that this little brother is not very advanced, but he can always hit the mark with his words. It really puts us old men to shame. I really doubt that this day is It¡¯s not like you¡¯re going to live like a dog.¡±
The middle-aged man looks less than forty, but Wang ‡å?The Lord Shen said that first-level martial arts monks age at half the rate of ordinary people. That is to say, middle-aged people who appear to be less than forty are very likely to be old people in their seventies or eighties. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration for a middle-aged person to say that he is an old guy.
Everyone did not comment on the middle-aged man's self-deprecation, but they also thought carefully about Wang Juan's question. When did time start to speed up? It is already a certain fact that the second day passes faster than the first day, but does time start to accelerate at a certain point on the second day, or is it at the night of the first day, or earlier? Has there been any change in time?
This question is really confusing, because although time is around everyone, or everyone is within time, time is something more ethereal than air. Invisible, intangible, and even wanting to answer whether time is a thing that has existed since ancient times, or is it a parameter benchmark that people make to facilitate their lives. What is the nature of time? This is simply an unknowable and extremely profound question. When you think about it deeply, you feel like your head is about to explode.
Everyone made many guesses, and the sloppy Taoist first guessed: "Could it be a monster? In the past two days, apart from killing monsters, we have done nothing else. This ancient land of creation is completely bare. There are no mechanisms. The trap can be touched. So it can only be a monster. The more monsters you kill, the faster time becomes. Although I don¡¯t know why. But this should be the only explanation." The middle-aged man shook his head: "If so It has something to do with the monsters we killed. So we killed two monsters on the first day. We only killed one on the second day. If the Taoist priest¡¯s inference is true, then the time will become faster on the first day than on the second day. More comes on the second day. Although I haven¡¯t calculated it carefully. But from the feeling, it is obvious that time speeds up more on the second day. Although the battle with the slow beast can be regarded as a fierce battle, it is not It might have taken three or four hours. As for the time on the first day, I¡¯m not sure whether it got faster or not, but it definitely didn¡¯t get that much faster.¡±
The middle-aged man's words were also approved by most people. Regarding the fact that time is speeding up, they were all speculations that only came up the next night or today. On the first day, no one felt anything was wrong at all. place.
Next, Murong Tina made a guess about the speed of time and the amount of aura in the ancient land of creation. She felt that the aura in the ancient land of creation was limited. Everyone consumed their own true energy. After absorbing the aura, the aura in the ancient land of creation changed. Less, so time goes faster. Murong Tina's idea is quite reliable, but Master Heshan pointed out that the richness of the spiritual energy of the ancient land of creation has not changed significantly, so the amount of spiritual energy absorbed by everyone is insignificant to the total amount of spiritual energy of the ancient land of creation. It could cause such a big change.
The beautiful woman believed that the speed of time was related to the damage of magic weapons. After several fierce battles, everyone lost a lot of magic weapons. However, it seems a bit far-fetched to say that this is related to the speed of time. It is more like the beautiful woman's feelings towards herself. The resentment that the magic weapon was damaged.
The woman thinks that the speed of time may be related to the number of people. The smaller the number of people, the faster time becomes. The unfortunate death of the reckless man yesterday is the reason why time becomes faster. However, everyone pointed out that time seemed to have begun to speed up before the death of the reckless man, because time seemed to pass quickly on the morning before encountering the slow beast. Everyone thought about it and eliminated everything, but they did not find a convincing answer. In the end, Master Heshan said together: "Amitabha, there will be a time when destiny will happen. Don't force it when there is no destiny. Since you can't find the answer, it's useless to worry about it. It's better to measure how much time has accelerated and whether it continues. It¡¯s the right thing to do to become faster.¡±
The sloppy Taoist nodded, looked at the sky and said: "A day is divided into twelve o'clock. Midnight is the so-called Zi hour, rooster crow is Chou, Pingdan is Yin, sunrise is Mao, and eating time is The day is Chen, the corner is Si, the sun is midday, it is noon, the sun is late, it is not, the time of feeding is Shen, the sun is entering, it is You, the dusk is Xu, and the person is determined, Hai. Now the sun is slightly to the west. It should be when noon is about to end and noon is about to rise. We might as well walk all the way and count the number of steps we have taken before sunset. Each person counts the steps alone, and then calculates the distance traveled based on their respective strides. Let¡¯s see how far we have traveled in three hours. Then compare it with our usual distance, and then we can roughly deduce how much faster time has become.¡±
The method proposed by the Sloppy Taoist was simple and easy to implement, and in the process of implementation, it did not delay the search for monsters, and it quickly gained unanimous approval from everyone.
Although Wang Yan and the beautiful woman were carrying the wooden plank to carry the scholar, they could not take too big steps, but they still counted them carefully step by step.
Along the way, I didn¡¯t find any suspicious place. Soon the last ray of sunset faded on the horizon. Walking aheadThe sloppy Taoist stopped and showed a questioning expression to everyone.
Three hundred and fifty-two thousand eight hundred and eleven steps. Wang Juan calculated in his mind that two steps are one foot, nine feet is one foot, and one hundred feet is one mile. In other words, he has walked almost the same, about one hundred and ninety-six miles.
Everyone reported the distance they calculated, which was almost the same as Wang Yan¡¯s result. This meant that a person who could walk four hundred miles in three hours on weekdays could actually walk four hundred miles in the same time. Traveled less than half the distance. In turn, that means the time is more than doubled.
¡°Isn¡¯t it true that the original time limit of four days and five nights is more than doubled, and this does not take into account the possibility that time will continue to speed up.
Everyone¡¯s faces were a little livid. If this continues, can they really kill the two remaining monsters?
"Since time is running out and we haven't consumed much energy today, we might as well travel all night to look for monsters. What do you think?" The middle-aged man's suggestion was exactly what everyone was thinking.
The sloppy Taoist added another sentence: "Don't forget to count the steps."
Under the bright moonlight, a group of ten people continued to move forward aimlessly. Is there no end to this ancient land of creation? If this continues. As time flies here, the hope of survival for everyone is getting slimmer and slimmer.
This invisible pressure has been tormenting everyone's nerves, even today, until now. All without any surprises. But this calm feeling of loneliness. But it was so stressful that everyone was gradually out of breath.
After finally walking out for another three hours, the beautiful woman suggested that everyone take a rest for an hour before dawn. If we encounter a monster, it will be a disaster for everyone in their current state.
The sloppy Taoist summed up the number of steps they had taken and found that they had walked about 200 miles in these three hours. This meant that time did not continue to speed up, and seeing that most people had tiredness on their faces, they agreed. Following the beauties' suggestion, we rested on the spot for an hour before continuing our journey tomorrow.
Wang Yan was lying on the soft sand. Although his limbs were sore and tired, he kept thinking in his heart. What happened in the past few days was too weird, far beyond his understanding?
Is this really the ancient land of creation? And is there any connection between this Ancient Land of Creation and the Great Hall of Creation that I am looking for? Is it really like in the painting that only by killing the five monsters representing greed, anger, ignorance, pride and suspicion can the secret behind it be revealed? If the task cannot be completed within seven days, will all these people die?
Countless questions were rolling in Wang Juan's mind. After thinking about it, Wang Juan fell into a deep sleep. When he was pushed awake by Murong Tina again, it was already daylight. Before he could talk to Murong Tina, what was happening in that room? But there was a sound of sobbing.
The scholar has gone.
??******
Everyone buried the scholar¡¯s ??body hastily, and then embarked on a journey to find the monster with a heavy heart. At the end of the day yesterday, except for the loss of the scholar, nothing was achieved. However, the time came to the morning of the fourth day inexplicably. No matter for whatever reason, everyone felt as if a stone had been pressed in their hearts, dull and dull. Very uncomfortable.
And because we have to keep counting steps, yesterday because I had the curiosity to verify the speed of time, I didn¡¯t really feel it. But today, maybe because I didn¡¯t get enough rest yesterday, or maybe I no longer have that curiosity in my heart. As I continued to count, my eyes slowly closed, my head felt dizzy and I wanted to fall asleep.
"Be careful"
Drowsily, it seemed that Murong Tina's voice was reminding him. The next moment, Wang Juan suddenly felt that his feet were empty, and then the wind whistled in his ears, and he felt like he was falling straight down.
Wang Yan opened his eyes and saw that everything he saw was pitch black. When he looked up, he saw only an irregular round hole, into which some dazzling eyes were shot.
The next moment, with a few swish sounds, Wang Juan drew out a few vines in his hand and shot them towards the soles of his feet. Fortunately, the vines quickly touched the ground. Under the buffering protection of the vines, Wang Juan also landed safely at the bottom of the cave.
Where is this dark place? Wang Juan sniffed a few times with his nose. Fortunately, there was no smell of mildew in the air. He calmed down for a moment. Then a person's head was exposed in the round hole above. Because the light was too dazzling, he couldn't see it. He found out who was lying at the entrance of the cave.
"Wang Ji, are you dead?"
Murong Tina¡¯s voice was loud and a bit harsh, but the trembling that could not be concealed made Wang Yan feel better.
"Murong, I'm not dead yet!"
Before Wang Yan could finish speaking, a stone fell on his head, and Murong Tina's indignant voice came faintly: "I can doze off while walking, but I haven't??Death, it's true that evil people live for a thousand years! "
Wang Juan rubbed his sore forehead aggrievedly, and wondered inwardly, could this be considered adding insult to injury? But then there were cheers from above.
Could it be that my character is so outrageous that others resent me? There is no need for everyone to rejoice in others' misfortune. Now I just fell into a deep pit, if I really burped. We still have to celebrate together. But the next moment, his heart also jumped hard, and he became uncontrollably excited. How could there be potholes in the desert? Could it be?
Wang Yan didn¡¯t have time to think too much. A figure had already jumped down from the entrance of the cave. He only heard the sloppy Taoist saying excitedly: "Good boy, luckily you stepped on the air, otherwise we missed this cave?"
"Falling into a hole?"
"Yes, there was a similar terrain in the ancient Qin State. The surface of the land looked like a desert. In fact, it was cut into pieces by rain and strong winds. There were countless deep ditches inside, but outside it was a crust of earth. It will break when you step on it, and the hollow below is a sinkhole. We are walking in front. We are not as lucky as you. If we miss it like this, we may not be able to find this cave."
Wang Yan nodded with half-understanding, just as a fire light came on in the dark cave, he followed the light to look. There turned out to be a few lonely lights floating in the air, swaying like will-o'-the-wisps.
"This is a Kongming Lantern, don't make a fuss."
Wang Yan smelled the fragrance of orchid in his mouth and nose, and then Murong Tina's voice full of admonishment sounded again.
Everyone looked through the firelight and saw that this underground cave was actually huge. There were large and small caves extending in all directions, and they were extremely complicated. Each cave was dark and bottomless, and it seemed that some kind of ghost would come out of it at any time. Throw it out, select people and devour them. One can't help but feel a little frightened, and a few chills rise unconsciously behind his back.
At this time, the timid woman's voice trembled and said: "This gully is filled with dragons and snakes, and the yin energy in the cave is heavy. I'm afraid it's not a good place to go. Should we go to the ground first and make a long-term discussion?" ?¡±
The sloppy Taoist¡¯s words were a little harsher: ¡°Don¡¯t make a sensation here, even if there are thousands of years of evil spirits hidden in this cave, we can only bite the bullet and explore it!¡±
Seeing the beautiful woman being scolded, Wang Yan remembered the scholar's instructions and couldn't help but come out to smooth things over and said: "Sister, the Taoist priest is right. If you are afraid, just stand closer to me. After all, we are all Time is running out!"
Before Wang Juan finished speaking, another stone hit his forehead. Wang Juan, who was furious, followed the fragrance of the orchid, covered his head and said: "Murong, why don't you put cold arrows in the dark hole?"
"Huh? Who told you to say 'time is running out'? It makes you angry.
Wang Yan was dissatisfied for a while. Hearing the sourness in this woman's words, it was not because he said something about 'time is running out.' It was clearly because he was talking to a beautiful woman and asked her to get closer to him, so he moved again. Get rid of ignorance and anger.
After the two people interrupted, the dull and depressing feeling in the cave became less. At that moment, the middle-aged man suggested that everyone gather in one place and explore the maze-like cave.
However, the sloppy Taoist who had always been walking at the front suddenly stopped, glanced at the crowd and said, "Du Mu Ke, you walk at the front with me."
Wang Yan was startled for a moment, and immediately understood the intention of the sloppy Taoist. The cave was pitch black and filled with a strange and gloomy atmosphere. With Du Mu Ke's temperament and character, no one would trust his own life. The back was handed into his hands.
The Dumuke hesitated for a moment, and when he saw that everyone was staring at him with burning eyes, his face became even more gloomy. He passed by everyone without saying a word and walked to the front of the team.
As for the other six people, they were led by Master Heshan and a middle-aged man. Wang Juan originally wanted to walk in the second row with Murong Tina, but Murong Tina rudely pushed him to the back and pulled the woman to walk with him. Wang Yan smiled bitterly and glanced at the innocent-looking woman. Come on, it¡¯s up to you.
Several people slowly moved forward in the cave, following the floating Kongming Lantern. The cave was high and low, and became narrower as they walked. Originally, where Wang Juan fell, the cave was almost three feet high and three or four feet wide. However, after several turns, the width of the hole gradually closed, allowing only two people to pass through it at the same time. Moreover, the rocks on the cave wall are strangely shaped, curled and convex like the roots of old trees.
The humidity on the rock wall is also getting higher and higher. From time to time, water drips out from the upside-down stalactites, and occasionally falls on the neck behind the head, making people shiver with the coldness.
Wang Juan wiped away the water droplets from the back of his neck and tightened his collar. The beautiful woman's towering breasts seemed to be stained with ice water. Her plump figure trembled, which made Wang Juan look sideways.
Murong Tina, who was walking in front, said coldly, as if there were eyes behind her, "Look. See enough!"
Wang Juan smiled awkwardly after being scolded by her little trick. The beautiful woman didn't mind very much. Instead, she deliberately pissed Murong Tina to death. She got a little closer to Wang Juan and said with a sweet smile: "Brother, it's cold in this cave. It's better to go out with my sister." Closer.¡±
Wang Yan smiled bitterly, this is not a matter of which pot should be opened and lifted. Seeing that Wang Yan didn't answer, the beautiful woman continued to think about the topic: "Brother, you have always been thoughtful. Do you think this winding cave hides a mysterious beast or a crazy beast?"
"Uh" Wang Yan shrank his neck. He shook his head and said, "I really don't know about this." But he secretly said in his heart, please stop asking.
"This cave is so dark that it makes people shudder. Naturally, it cannot be a crazy beast. Greedy beasts in the land of greed. Angry beasts in the forest of anger. Slow beasts in the land of contempt. This is the place of suspicion. The suspicious beast in the cave. Although we people come and go without any grudges, is there not a trace of suspicion in our hearts, and the person behind it will not take the opportunity to kill? "
The woman's silver bell-like laughter echoed in the cave, and Wang Yan cried in his heart. Of course, he knew that this dark and tortuous maze-like environment is most likely to make people feel insecure, and then become suspicious of the people around them, but suspicion One thing is the most mysterious. If suspicion has not arisen at all, there will be no problem at all. But when suspicion comes together, it will burn uncontrollably like a lit firewood until one of them is swallowed up and burned out.
Sure enough, the shoulder of the single-eyed guest walking in the front twitched obviously, and the beautiful woman's face also turned gloomy. Except for the woman, everyone knew about the discord between the two and deliberately did not mention it. However, all the short-term peace was finally overturned by the woman. Broken.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a cold wind blowing towards his face. Wang Yan got goosebumps all over his body. Then he thought about how the wind came from the hole, whether it was at the exit, or why the wind smelled fishy. ?
Before Wang Juan could figure it out, the two Kongming lanterns floating in the sky suddenly went out.
Everyone understands.
"The cave of suspicion, the beast of suspicion appears!"
??******
In the darkness, there was no way to light the Kongming Lantern again. The sloppy Taoist tried to light a fireball, but it was quickly blown away by the fishy wind.
Unable to use their eyesight, everyone's consciousness was released, and then they heard a "hoarse" sound, the roar of a suspicious beast.
??The beautiful woman and Wang Juan who were bound by Wang Juan generally did not have the ninth level of Qi training, so they were unable to release their spiritual consciousness in the dark, and they were basically like blind men.
Retreat, retreat to the place where you fell, where there is light.
As soon as Wang Yan thought about it, he was about to pull away and go back, but a fierce feeling suddenly flashed through his mind. Wang Juan didn't even think about what was going on, so he consciously lowered himself, and at the same time used the vine technique to pull down the beautiful woman who seemed to be stiff on one side. Then a gust of evil wind hit his head and escaped an inch from his scalp. past.
Not to be outdone, Wang Juan flashed his fire crocodile kiss for the first time and stabbed the fire crocodile kiss towards the passing evil wind. However, cracks rippled out in the space, but nothing was struck. If it weren't for the smelly wind, Wang Yan would have thought that he was nervous and there wouldn't be any enemies around him.
"The fishy wind is coming from the front, let's move back!" Someone shouted in the darkness, and Wang Juan heard the anxious voice of a middle-aged man.
But as soon as he finished speaking, the fishy wind changed its direction and came from behind everyone. It was stronger than the one just now, almost making people unsteady and about to be swept away by the wind.
At the same time, there was another violent fluctuation of true energy. I don¡¯t know who it was, but it was another encounter with the mysterious beast whose head and tail were missing.
Everyone who turned dizzy by the direction of the wind did not know how to get along, retreat or advance, and after a few rotation in the darkness, they lost their direction at all.
"Let me go quickly, I have the Luminous Dragon Ball in my arms!" While he was hesitating, the anxious voice of the beautiful woman sounded. Wang Yan was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately took the vine back.
But before the beautiful woman took out the Luminous Dragon Ball, Wang Juan felt a tightness in his legs, and then he became unsteady and was pulled to the ground. Wang Juan's legs were dragged with a huge force, trying to pull him into the depths of the cave. , Wang Juan struggled to get up from the ground, but after trying several times, he failed.
At this time, the beauty's luminous dragon ball finally lit up. With the faint light, Wang Juan quickly looked at his legs and saw that his calf was wrapped by a dark red rope.
Wang Yan pulled out the fire crocodile kiss, bent his waist, and stabbed the dark red rope hard. But the dark red rope is extremely tough, and the fire crocodile kiss can't do it at all.It caused damage. Wang Yan, who failed to cut the dark red rope, finally ran out of strength in his waist. As soon as he loosened his body, he was quickly dragged by the dark red rope.
While breathing, Wang Juan turned several turns in the dark cave. Various parts of his body continued to roughly hit the protruding stones on the cave wall, and several cuts were cut by sharp protrusions. Wang Yan could only feel the pain and sucked in his breath, but he was so anxious that he could do nothing.
But the fishy wind is getting stronger and stronger.
"Immediately, Wang Juan felt a faint green light coming from him. Could it be that someone was coming to save me?" Wang Juan struggled to open his eyes, and the scene he saw made him gasp and almost fainted on the spot.
Where is the light that shines? It is clearly two green eyes, and a huge snake head is opening its bloody mouth to welcome his arrival, and the dark red rope binding his calf is impressive. Just one goes into the mouth of the giant snake, this is its tongue!
At such a close distance, in the light of the snake's eyes, every inch of the giant snake's skin and white teeth were clearly visible. Wang Juan couldn't help but feel his scalp numb, and was strangled in the belly by the giant snake, and then swallowed by the gastric juices. , when I think of that tragic situation, a chill rushes straight to the top of my head.
At this critical moment, a gust of wind came from behind Wang Juan, and before he could figure out the situation, a huge black shadow flew quickly against the tip of Wang Juan's nose.
There was a loud 'bang' sound, and a big stone three feet square pressed on the giant snake's tongue. It was Murong Tina's falling stone technique!
The giant snake finally felt pain, and its tongue struggled and wandered under the boulder for a while, then quickly retracted into its mouth. Wang Yanna didn't take the opportunity to rush in the opposite direction. Following Murong Tina's guidance, he finally followed the others and stumbled back to the place where they fell amidst the waves of wind and turbulence. , looking at the ray of sunshine shooting from the round hole, everyone finally relaxed.
??******
Perhaps because they had inhaled too much fishy wind, everyone felt a little dizzy. The beautiful woman took out a bottle of green elixir and said: "This is the psychic earth lizard elixir left by the scholar, which specializes in treating all kinds of miasma poisons." Mist." After saying that, he threw one into his mouth.
Wang Yan also hurriedly took one pill and drank it. The bottle was passed around in everyone's hands. Everyone except Dumuke took one pill.
The scholar's elixir was indeed effective. Except for Du Mu Ke, everyone else's faces showed some color. After Wang Yan calmed down, he recalled the experience of almost becoming a giant snake wedged between his teeth.
"So the true form of the suspicious beast is a giant snake." The sloppy Taoist frowned, "The cave inside here turns around a hundred times, and there is no light at all. The fishy wind has greatly affected our actions. Therefore, when fighting a suspicious beast in a cave, there is no chance of winning. You need to think of a foolproof method, otherwise it will only cause casualties."
Wang Juan, who was the first to bear the brunt, nodded repeatedly with deep feeling, saying that he would never take risks easily again.
"But if we don't enter the tiger's den, we won't catch the tiger's cubs. If we don't enter this grotto, how will we kill the suspicious beast?"
The middle-aged man pondered for a moment and said: "One of the thirty-six strategies is called luring the snake out of its hole. If we can lure this mysterious beast here, or even on the surface, and face the mysterious beast without the advantage of the location, our chances of winning will definitely increase. "
Murong Tina shook her head and said: "It's easy to say. Since this suspicious beast is named after 'suspicious', it is naturally suspicious by nature. How could it be easily lured out of the cave by us? Who would be the bait?"
Everyone was speechless after hearing this. It is true that luring a snake out of its hole is easier said than done. In the rush, no one can think of a way. In the end, the woman suggested that it would be better to return to the surface to think about countermeasures than to stay in this dark and depressing cave.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Everyone felt refreshed after seeing the light of day, everyone felt refreshed, except for the sloppy Taoist, who had a strange look on his face.
"Taoist, what's wrong?" Everyone was killed one after another, and now seeing the Taoist's face changed drastically, they were afraid that something would happen again.
"You guys, look at the sun!" The sloppy Taoist's voice was trembling. (To be continued. Mobile phone users please go to read.)
